Happy 4th Birthday, Lia's Food Journey!

Oh my Goodness! If I went to college again 4 years ago, I would have graduated already by now!

It is hard to imagine that I have been chronicling my eating and cooking life for the past 4 years!

One person asked me what do I get out of writing my blog?

Hmmmm.... Tough question to answer... But really...

When I conceptualized the theme of my blog, my goal was to share my passion for food and my recipes. I stopped counting at 200.... I have over 200 recipes which I generously shared with my friends and readers. I am very glad whenever I get feedback from them that their experiments were successful! It makes me feel very proud of their accomplishments.

Then... Another person asked me why do I always invite friends over?! What do I get out of it?!

Here I am with my love for cooking.... But nobody to share it with?!

When I open my house to friends.... When I cook for them....

I not only give them my food but also give a piece of myself...

Time I have spent marketing and cooking which I can never get back....

I pour my heart and soul into it....

I infuse the flavor with my love.

Hahahahaha Believe me, my friends do know the difference of cooking with amour or without.

This last year.... I was able to invite more friends into my home which they fondly call, The Batcave.

My college friends from AC and their families.... A constant in my life and in my house.....

Even if Celine is abroad, we still include her in our get together.....

My Elementary and HS friends.....

Lisa was home for the holidays!

The Junkies!!!!

Senior Citizen friends....

My "officemates"...

The readers of my blog who became friends....

My Bel-Air Church group...

KST friends...

Neighbors....

Friends who share the same passion for Cholesterol!

Balikbayan friend who loves my Kare-Kare....

My cousin from Dubai!

Friends who are like a 2nd family to me....

Friend of a friend...

My schoolmates...

My little friend from Australia, Santina, and her Mom

I am so blessed I have you all in my life!

You are the reason why I spend my time researching and experimenting with new recipes.

Thank you for accompanying me in my Food Journey!
